John I am enjoying your Family holiday throughout Australia. Out standing how your traveling and beautiful seenery your experancing along the way. Thank you kindly for sharing your Family trip along the way. Kind Regards John Dickson

[@mylurebox]

Thanks for your interest and support for the trip John. It’s been a wonderful time with my family;)

[@aussie_fishcatcha9583]

Mate I just wanted to thank you. I have watched ur vids for over a year and have finally landed my first ever jack down here on the Gold Coast, and it was 50cm too. I would have just given up after a while if it wasn’t for your vids so thank you mate.

[@mylurebox]

Awww mate that’s great to hear ;) so stoked for you! And a 50 is something very special. Well done :) that’s brilliant. Hope he put on a fight to remember for you. I am very grateful that you have taken the time to let me know too. Cheers

[@aussie_fishcatcha9583]

Mate your a absolute legend

[@dsr20631]

I spotted you guys in my home town today, actually saw the tinny on top from a distance down the main street and thought to myself there's only one other set up Ive seen like that before but then I noticed the my lure box sticker on the side. I wasn't quick enough to throw ya a thumbs up. Welcome to the south coast glad the rain stayed away for ya's

[@mylurebox]

Awww Dave that’s awesome mate. Woulda been great to say Gday. Man we’ve had a cold change as we’ve headed south. Soft Gold Coast boy can’t handle it. Hahaha. You live in a stunning part of the country though mate. Just beautiful

[@Gerard6235]

Hey I was searching boat loaders and found my two favorite things ,your channel and the Mozzie. cheers mate.

[@mylurebox]

Great to hear Gerard :)

[@justingilliland272]

Awesome idea mate. I have Ute set up the same and boat with 30hp I was looking at taking boat motor off and having to get trailer that folds away. You have given me some ideas. Thanks heaps

[@mylurebox]

It’s an epic set up mate ;) cheers

[@stephenlatimer1428]

luv the loader John. from the first vid i have order 2 for myself. one for the Ram 1500 n the other for the XR8 ute.

[@mylurebox]

Good stuff Stephen. They’re a beaut system and given us the options I’d hoped for with our trip. The custom fab framing to support it was a must and having it spec’d up to be rock solid was a good move.

[@stephenlatimer1428]

@@mylurebox thx for the tip on the custom fab framing John.

[@bjreynolds24]

Hey Johnny, very smart system you have set up there, takes me ages to set my small tinny up with electric motor , sounder etc etc.....You and your family stay safe ...KRACKA

[@mylurebox]

Cheers mate. It’s been a great trip ;) regardless of the set up though, having a boat to explore is such a game changer I reckon.

[@LilPetoz]

First time seeing this setup how good is this!

[@mylurebox]

It’s been brilliant mate

[@terriepattersonpatterson8095]

Would love to know costings , and if possible, can you get in WA

[@billpowyer5125]

Your audio seem to have improved in this clip keep up the good work 🙂🙂 love ya set up

[@mylurebox]

Great to hear it Bill. I’m trying a few different things like voice enhancement analysis on clips. Hopefully it’s an improve. Capturing it without a lapelle mic and jumping between cameras can be. A challenge. Fingers crossed it’s gonna improve in time.

[@ganiveli5714]

Hey bud I love the idea of the boat being upright, save lifting the motor on & off do you know if they have a weight limit and what size is your boat…? Cheers happy travels

[@ozzie.cruisers.4x4]

Just order one for my 79 series cruiser and a seajay creekmasta 3.7 hs

[@mylurebox]

Awesome mate. They’re unreal for what we’ve done

[@gurantobennett3513]

This is the only way to have a car topper now, can't believe how well that works.

[@jamessippel7489]

Absolutely brilliant set up mate. I'm not a pessimist but to think I'm more of an optimist, is there a manual backup if your electric winch fails when putting your boat on and off your vehicle? Being a farmer still young or young at heart hehe will being doing this when I'm older when my kids can run the farm. Keep up the good work mate. Looking forward to seeing your next adventure 👍👌

[@mylurebox]

For sure James. Cheers mate. It comes with the hard wired option too. ;) cheers for following along

[@peacefulsoul77]

hows the payload with everything????

[@michaelepstein1967]

What is wind resistance compared to standard roof top set up / I love your set up!!

[@peterford4656]

what size and brand of boat

[@Prizzo85]

What brand boat loader mate?

[@anshsingh1533]

Where abouts your travelling through. I thinking of travelling to the south Coast my soon too ???

[@mylurebox]

This video was shot at Coral Bay ;)

[@MySprike]

How close does the bottom of the motor get to the ground when coming off the roof as you don't seem to tilt it up?

[@mylurebox]

It’s been made to not touch and just roll off. It’s about 50mm gap I’d say ;)

[@newport5504]

Great setup but dam that’s a lot of weight on the roof how does it go with insurance

[@anthonydoherty1599]

The weight isn’t on the roof, it’s on a frame that’s bolted to the tray. Roof load limit doesn’t apply. He’s shown it in a previous video he did.

[@newport5504]

@@anthonydoherty1599 it’s still the roof doesn’t matter if it’s the canopy with a roll cage that’s the roof

[@anthonydoherty1599]

He’s done his research and believes different. Show me where it says that the roof load limit rating on a vehicle also applies to loads that are above roof level, even if that load isn’t being transferred through the original roof structure? The proof is in the pudding…..thousands of kms done on some of the harshest roads the country has to offer with no issues. Will it have an effect on stability? Naturally. But he’s not an idiot and likely adjusts his driving to suit.

[@newport5504]

@@anthonydoherty1599 I know what your saying but I’m just simply saying that’s a lot of weight on your roof very top heavy, I’m not asking what his roof load limit is, I’m sure it has an engineering plate and a approve to have that modification like an approved bullbar, you can’t have a bullbar that’s not adr approved, you can’t even have a fishing rod holder on your bullbar or a light bar above the bullbar, imagine this in a roll over, would definitely need to be approved, doing his research and the law is a lot different mate

[@anthonydoherty1599]

@@newport5504 Any car with anything on a roof would be a mess in a rollover! Let’s stick with your point though…..please point out the law he’s not complying with? You can’t just say “that’s not compliant” and not back it up. And to be fair, it’s not a crap load of weight. It would be comparable to some roof top tents out there. It’s a light tinny with a small motor, some gear and a light trailer. I can have 200kg on my 200 series roof while remaining compliant. And you have to put things in context. If you’re going to change the stability due to weight being up higher, you also need to consider to increase in stability for all the weight that’s been included lower on the vehicle. He’s carrying a bunch of stuff lower down in the vehicle which will offset some of the stuff up high. You or I are in no position to point fingers and make judgements, he’s the bloke that’s engaged a professional to build the racking system as well as the boat loading system. He seems like a smart bloke to me who wouldn’t take unnecessary risk with his family. I’d never read any KZbin comments if i was making videos, too many people out there that think they know better because they only see part of the story. You could always just say “nice work mate, enjoy’!

[@jackmillar1726]

Hey mate, are you limited to a load rating on the roof? That setup is absolutely unreal.

[@scottelliott4338]

How do I get 1

[@HOLDENLOVER_18]

what trailer

[@corygirard8678]

Hey mate. How did you reinforce the canopy to take the weight?

[@mnesporek]

Hi John, what a great setup. Can I ask what is the total weight on the roof with the complete setup and how does it work with manufacturers limits. Cheers Martin

[@anthonydoherty1599]

There’s actually no weight on the roof from what i understand. He made a previous video about it. The racking system sits on a frame that is bolted in to the tray, no weight on the actual roof, so the manufacturers roof load rating doesn’t apply. Some will argue against that due to stability issues, but it’s his decision and thousands of kms later it’s still going strong. I rate it highly and will look in to the same setup in future.

[@barrysbuzz]

Hey mate can you please tell me what make and size the boat is that you have?

[@mylurebox]

Hi Barry. Mine is a 3.7m Quintrex Traveller. I’ve had the side rails added for the kids.

[@peterhatton7558]

I would be to scared to use that system it would tip over for me, but others and of cause this gentleman love it. all that stuff in the tinny and a outboard and a trailer a bridge to far for me. and I would think Toyota would be horrified. he obviously has a very good feel for lean angles far superior than mine.

[@brianbochow]

Great setup mate...What kinda dollars would one expect to pay for such a boat loader as yours...also how big is your boat length wise please...

[@mylurebox]

Hi Brian. My tinny is a 3.7m. Mozzi make them to custom fit your boat and to the vehicle. Best you email them for the current pricing quotes ;)

[@Ian-io4tu]

John what do reckon is your all up weight for just the boat, motor, trailer and fishing gear etc on top?

[@mylurebox]

It’s almost 250kg Ian including the rack system.

[@williamfitzpatrick1055]

What kind of bait caster combo would u recommend for chasing jacks line size etc

[@mylurebox]

Hi Will. Spinning outfits are also great for em. If you check out some of my Jack videos you’ll notice I use both. A 200curado and around a 4-7kg rod is great. I don’t go any lighter than 20lb line and that sorts most of em out. ;) you don’t need the highest end gear, it’s all about patience, time on the water, accurate casts and a smooth drag. Yehaaaaa.

[@williamfitzpatrick1055]

@@mylurebox righto thanks for the tips can't wait for more of your vids cheers

[@denrizza]

My wife saw this and now we are interested in this set up for at least me and fishing here in the U.S.. Do you have a rough estimate and/or list of what it would take to get this setup? Thanks for posting and reading!

[@victorbitter583]

Lots more info above and in the show more section, mate.

[@mylurebox]

Thanks mate ;) I appreciate you getting the follow up help before I could. Love your work

[@BIGROBAUSSIE]

Awesome setup, just a little recommendation though - check what your vehicle is rated to carry on the roof. A mate was involved in an accident with a roof pod setup and his insurance wiped him when they checked the weight of it. Apparently most vehicles are only rated to a few hundred kilos?

[@mylurebox]

Cheers mate. I’m looking into what I can on this topic. It’s hard to find a lot of the answers to be fair. Emails etc from Toyota and Jayco engineers is tough to get. The loader is mounted only through the tray. There’s nothing touching the roof itself. Still keen to dive in and find out more though

[@wellsjdan]

Seems it would be easier to just do a straight traler

[@mylurebox]

If you’re not towing a caravan or doing a round Aus trip, definitely the trailer is a great option.

[@all_aussie_fishing_adventures_]

Hi mate another great video just wounded if you would like one of my all_aussie_fishing_adventures_ bragmats to put your fish on ???

[@mylurebox]

Hi mate. Thanks a lot. I use an RCD roller for measuring but thank you

[@Jeff-uk9jx]

I'm interested in the trailer, not your fishing
